RayFire Tutorial - Breaking Wooden Wall by Car

[@Charlie_Alpha_Lima]

I especially like how you use differing velocity values so we can see (real time) how they affect the sim. Nice!

[@FaceTheVenom]

I just realized.. you're the guy that MADE RayFire right? Great plugin and great tutorial!

[@KASSISHOT]

I'm currently doing the same thing for a short film and the way I would go about like a wall would be to model a small portion of the wall and have a sphere bust through it coming towards the camera to give the effect of the debris spraying out, same idea for the tree :]

[@MarkSpraker]

Thanks for the video MirVadim! I was hoping you would cover this effect sooner than the rest - Turns out it's the first thing you go over. :)

[@PraiseTheeSun]

Is there a way to dent metal doors? Such as if you had two doors closed, (like a military base or something like that that you would find in a game or movie) and a car crashed through it, is there a way to make the doors open up dented and deformed? Would that require manual editing or could you just change the properties to steel or some sort of metal?

[@DavonAllen92]

as far as i know the latest plugin has been installed because ive tried to download your plugins but im told that they are older versions i have max 2014

[@slivertorp]

Thank you for tutorial and scene files, a good way to learn your awesome stuff, and to see news features in action, continue :)

[@KevinHarper3DArtist]

First, thank you very much for your tutorial. Its really good. But I wish you would explain every setting you change. Sometimes I am just following along and I am changing something but I do not understand what it does. Again, Great Tutorials and thank you for taking the time to make it.

[@DavonAllen92]

i think i maybe trying to push too many pre fragmanets thought because it only happens if i bump it up i took your demo and it worked with my mesh fine

[@ChaosPTgames]

Hello buddy i have a question about rayfire... i have some problem with the animation of the car . I did a autokey animation with the car going into the wood plakes, but when i make the preview of the animation on rayfire setup the car just doesnt move from the place dunno why. can u explain to me how u made your car move?

[@TheEightfoldPath_]

Nice one! Great beginners tutorial for understanding the interaction between fractured objects and moving objects :D

[@FatEskimo97]

why were there those pieces that just floated in the air after the crash?

[@MaksymSieroshtanov]

Отличный урок и отличный ангийский!

[@ChaosPTgames]

oh i found out why it didnt move. was because the wheels of the car. Dunno why it doesnt work with them... after taking them out it worked pretty well, but how do we make it with the wheels and the car? i did "group" on the car+ wheels and it didnt let me too...

[@h5vhh]

thanks you for giving us scene files because you used to start your tutorials with scenes that you dont even explain :(

[@mohaimndraz]

OMG. That's Great. It will be great if you make a tutorial for all the effects in your technical reel.

[@edvartslogins6531]

I need help. When I fragment all the planks they all fragment the same. How to make them unique?

[@zulkarias29]

when i go to use rayfire it says: "Rayfire fragmenter is not initialized check for RF plugin in plugins folder". please help

[@pedrokobuti]

Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. It is very appreciated! keep up the awesome work

[@tartus4916]

Why did you leave the collisions at convex instead of concave?

[@Gilloozz]

what should nvidia card i get to make this program work just fine because it works so slow on my pc please

[@trinityisstillmyname9721]

Hello and thank you for this wonderful tutoria. But I hope to get help on the car model. Please

[@Gilloozz]

please help,my car animation (the key frames) disappear when i start the simulation its like i didn't do any animation ?

[@Proctie1]

Thank you SO much for this! I can't describe the feeling when I saw this in my subscription box! :D

[@camtwan1]

Can you make like the same tutorials. However like a sniper hitting cement or a tree like in Sherlock Holmes

[@AwesomeAlvin]

I have a newer version of 3ds max and rayfire, my clusters don't break. They stay intack, and even tho my object is moving slow, the wooden fence reacts unrealistically and appears as the object is moving fast. Please help .

[@psychfive0]

thank you for the great tut. anyways i was wondering where you can get the physx plugin since the nvidia developers site is down

[@inthiquab]

just one question, how do you setup the viewport? looks great

[@zapdo77]

how would you give different impact objects different settings

[@johndoeufify]

Well, RayFire doesn't "bend" things (like a metal door). it's used to break things in several pieces :) only

[@DarkWoodProductions]

Hey Vadim I have a problem, when I click on fragment, it does not do anything

[@vincenzoceccarelli]

Very good tutorial! Thank you MirVadim! :)

[@VFXLtd]

Hey man, if ichange the iterations i MUST delete the manager first otherwise it will crash right?

[@AkimTheMovie]

How can we texture the woods ?

[@nukeDv2]

how do you set it to that grey mode?

[@Rilliden]

I want to know his render settings

[@joserororo9240]

wow ..., it really looks really cool ..., thank you very much and un saludo.

[@Mets3D]

oh it was the collision tolerance, i pulled it up sometime accidently..

[@GD15555]

why cannot linked moving objects (no animated but linked to a moving dummy) act as demolishers while we use bullet engine. They just go through

[@MirVadim]

Hi, I will fix this in next build.

[@GD15555]

Thank you!

[@SIDOLOMI]

Can this be done in c4d? if yes than what plug in will you use for the planks to break

[@XIGRAHAMIX]

Yes, it's just no plugin can get results as good as this. It's possible but takes an un-godly amount of work.

[@DavonAllen92]

I keep getting this error about meshtype in undefined can anyone help me out?

[@PraiseTheeSun]

why doesnt the download link work? its just a bunch of code.

[@wolfkaulen82]

Hi MirVadim, I got a problem: when I type in the startframe and hit 'preview' afterwards it starts playing the animation of my jeep until this exact startframe and then just stops it right in front of my door. (the door breaks anyways). And it seems like the keyframe informations have been deleted as well. I don't know what to do to change this and I've no idea what exactly may cause this problem! Any help would be greatly appreciated ;) Edit: I may add that my jeep is actually a group of meshes... could that cause the problem?

[@wolfkaulen82]

Problem solved: seems like the 'group' is the problem. Tried the same thing and just changed the jeep with a single mesh... worked totally fine. I'm very sorry for bothering you :D

[@andrew-martin]

Great tutorial, many thanks.

[@gfxfilms2012]

Rayfire for Maya?

[@robertorodricks3000]

This looks as easy as painting a wall

[@ssjfx007]

great tut

[@linkspecialproximity]

Are you planning to implement ragdolls in the future? Would be awesome to smash a guy through a wooden door like that xD

[@BIGZONify]

Tnx for tutor and your english

[@Mets3D]

fragments falling through ground anyone? density is low on the fragments, high on the ground, gravity is default or lower... o.0?

[@ID3623]

AWSOME!

[@HarryRenren]

great!! thx for your video. it really help me :)
